same problem with 1.7.3, 1.7.7 1.8.0! the pages load forever. i tried to remove the # in the conf file as stated in the help, but 1.8 stopped working with the error messages that the command is not declared or the proper file is not linked (sorry dont remember the exact error message!)

1.7.7 is still working, but with no change at all in the behaviour. the problem persists.. any tipps?

thanks

i had a virus that was not recognized nor by avg nor by malwarebytes! a run of combofix replaced the infected services.exe and now it works!for all the other people i have found having thi ssame issue give it a try! be aware that combofix does autoreboot the system without asking anything (i lost an hour of work because of that crap..) so save before you execute it...

That's very interesting. In my case, I too found that pages were extremely slow in loading. I run both Avast and Malware Bytes and neither one found anything awry so I never suspected a virus. I came here to see if anyone else had complained about slow loading pages when using XAMPP and found this thread. I downloaded and ran combofix and now everything is nice and fast.

I should mention that Avast did find one thing but I'm sure it's just the false positive warning I read about on the main page. For some reason it doesn't like C:\xampp\licenses\pdflib\PDFlib-License.pdf
